About PBC
Certifiers and engineers in one practice.
Project Building Certifiers is a private building certification, building surveying and regulatory advice practice working from Adelaide and Darwin. We work with volume builders, architects, developers and government on residential, commercial, remote and industrial projects — with registered certifiers, engineers and compliance consultants in one practice, so assessment, advice and approval move together.
Our team
The people who do the work.
Our certifiers and engineers work across both jurisdictions and both offices. Projects are resourced by capability, not by location.
